Analyzing combinatorial properties of polysemie lexical units to characterize metaphorical links

Lucie Barque, Anne-Laure Jousse · 2006

The DiCo is a formal database describing derivational and combinatorial properties of French lexical units. The work presented in this paper exploits the information provided by the DiCo in order to propose a typology of lexicalized metaphorical meanings. According to the degree of activeness of the metaphors, we will suggest different lexicographic treatments for metaphorical meanings.
